I hate reading this kind of shit. Schools are meant to provide background knowledge on how the world works. Some responsibility in educating children actually is the parents' job. Pushing everything towards schools and pretending kids would listen for even 5 minutes when talking about insurance, taxes or job applications is mind bogglingly naive to me and completely leaves out parents and their part of education their OWN fucking kids.

But yeah, it's all part of the "system" that parents are too fucking lazy to spend even 10 minutes a day with their kids and prepare them for life.

So how do we decide which stuff should be formal education and which stuff is the parents responsibility?

Also there are a lot of factors that play into whether a student pays attention in class or not.
